Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The law of demand states that a higher price leads to a lower quantity demanded and that a lower price leads to a higher quantity demanded.

Detailed explanation-2: -Quantity demanded and price are inversely related this means that as the price of the goods increase the demand of that commodity decreases and vice versa. This is because of the law of diminishing marginal utility.

Detailed explanation-3: -If the price goes up, the quantity demanded goes down (but demand itself stays the same). If the price decreases, quantity demanded increases. This is the Law of Demand. On a graph, an inverse relationship is represented by a downward sloping line from left to right.

Detailed explanation-4: -The law of demand is a fundamental principle of economics that states that at a higher price, consumers will demand a lower quantity of a good. Demand is derived from the law of diminishing marginal utility, the fact that consumers use economic goods to satisfy their most urgent needs first.

Detailed explanation-5: -The Law of Demand states that there is an indirect relationship between the price of a good or service and the quantity of that good or service that consumers are willing and able to buy. In other words, as the price of an item increases, buyers are less willing and able to buy it and vice versa.
